Jump-starting

The wires leading to the
power socket do not have
a load-capacity rating adequate
for jump-starting the engine. Ex-
cessively high current can lead
to a cable fire or damage to the
vehicle electronics.
Do not use the on-board socket
to jump-start the engine of the
motorcycle.
A short-circuit can res-
ult if the crocodile clips
of the jump leads are accident-
ally brought into contact with the
motorcycle.
Use only jump leads fitted with
fully insulated crocodile clips at
both ends.
Jump-starting with a donor-
battery voltage higher than
12 V can damage the vehicle
electronics.
Make sure that the battery of the
donor vehicle has a voltage rating
of 12 V.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
